Step Inside An Egyptian Pyramid At The Houston Museum Of Natural Science In Texas’ Newest Exhibit
If seeing the Pyramids of Giza in person is out of the question, the Houston Museum of Natural Science has the next-best thing. Making its world premiere right here in Texas, Ramses the Great and the Gold of the Pharaohs is an exhibit featuring nearly 200 ancient Egyptian artifacts.
